The solar PV modules are larger than customary 60-cell modules and generate a higher yield – around 20% fewer modules are needed to achieve the same power yield, saving support frames and installation costs. The EcoMax modules are available with power ratings between 270 W and 280 W. “We designed the new EcoMax module especially for large-scale projects where the cost savings achieved by having a lower number of modules, as well as a shorter installation time, are huge. These factors play an increasingly large role in the project planning phase,” says Dr Thomas Hillig, Director Sales & Marketing EMEA. “Clients that are particularly environmentally aware will also like the module series, because our manufacturing process uses very little energy.” Like other ITS modules, the 72-cell model is produced using re-processed solar cells, giving it a small carbon footprint – around...
